You will also explore advancements in simulation, and the challenges faced during simulation-based learning. 

On successful completion of this micro-credential, learners will be able to:  

  • Develop competency and expand your knowledge in the application of simulation in healthcare. 
  • Apply education strategies required for simulation practice. 
  • Develop scenarios specific to the clinical healthcare setting. 
  • Develop experience in applying these scenarios utilising a range of fidelity patient simulator. 
  • Identify and apply the IT infrastructure and platforms to manage a simulation session. 
  • Manage a simulation session and measure the necessary outcomes.
